We Are In This Together

Thankful to Dayanara Gail Arandela for the inspiration.

Coaching kids is one of the most fulfilling things that we can do. It can be hard, it can be challenging, but there is nothing like seeing kids grow and succeed because of the leadership and instruction that we are providing.

I always say that if you have a good coach, be thankful. The true gems are few and far between.

On the flip side, we coaches have to fully invest in the kids, and families, that we teach, coach, and lead. Our responsibility is to give them everything we can. It responsibility is to teach them how to be better players and better people. It is to love them, care about them, teach them, and help them grow.

Coaches, when you get players who are bought in, who are respectful, who are tough, and who are coachable, be thankful. Thank them. Celebrate their character strengths. Help them grow their character weaknesses.

Coaching and playing is a true partnership. We are in this together.
